Skill source

The Source tab shows the package an agent receives when it uses a skill. A package starts with SKILL.md, but it can also contain references, templates, examples, scripts, and other files needed to do the job well. Source also holds the skill’s version picker and version comparison.

​

Inspect the package

Use the file tree to open each file. Markdown files have a rendered preview and a source view. Atlan also shows the package size and a content digest for each file, so you can tell what belongs to the selected version. In this example, meeting-notes-to-actions includes:

• SKILL.md for its core instructions
• references/decision-format.md for consistent decisions
• references/owner-resolution.md for matching actions to people
• templates/follow-up.md for a reusable message
• examples/product-review.md for a concrete worked example

​

Check where it came from

The source label identifies how the skill entered Atlan. A Git-backed skill links to its repository and pinned commit. Skills created in Atlan show their Atlan source instead.

​

Compare or restore a version

Use the version picker at the top of Source to open an earlier version. The selected version shows whether it is live or has been superseded, when it was released, and who released it. When you open an earlier version, select Compare with live to inspect the file changes against the current version. This comparison is always against the live version, not another earlier release. People with permission to update the skill can select Restore for an earlier version. Confirming the action publishes a new version with that version’s files. It preserves the current version and the rest of the history.
